Fortunately U-637's second patrol was rather boring. But, it did show one thing of interest.
I did not even get close to a Yank convoy. I was driven under by 2 DEs and did not even site the merchants.
I sank one with a T5 but by the time I came up and the other left the convoy was long gone.
I felt this represented 1944 well.

Then it rained like Noah saw. I got my only convoy report of the patrol and snuck in with all the bad weather sank a liberty and a T3 and snuck out all quiet like. It rained and rained and I went home with 8 fish left but not enough fuel to continue.
At this rate Germany will lose the war!

If I get this where I feel it is close to right or at least close enough to be a step in the right direction I might package it and release it as a GW add on.
Not a sanctioned one just that I have been running GW so it would be what it is compatible to..

It is one thing to make it harder like it was it is another to eliminate the impossibilities that also deminish the realism, whatever that is!
